  • 08/2015 Fishing Report by Ross Parham on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

    Report on-board Spot On!

    What a month July was this year, very disappointing on the weather front with over 50% of trips having to be cancelled due to strong winds.
    However when we did get out the fishing was fantastic once more from SPOT ON! of Brixham with wrecking still going strong with great numbers of Cod, Pollock, and Ling being the main target species with the odd Bass and whiting making a show.

    Skerries banks have tailed off a bit in numbers but the Plaice are getting bigger with one session seeing a 4lb and 5lb fish being taken along with a fair few in the 2-3lb region. The blonde and small eyed rays are also showing well although no great monsters of these landed just yet.

    Last trip before my holiday yesterday (1st August) saw us head out to the mid channel wrecks with a group of lads from Bristol all on hired rods saw them catching plenty of Cod and Pollock along with pouting.

    lucky angler Matt Williams pulled a monster from the deep and a once in a lifetime fish on a 15/30lb class fladen hire rod fitted with Akios reel loaded with 30lb braid and armed with a sidewinder lure on a 30lb trace hooked an Angler fish, which is a first for me on board Spot On. The fish hit 49lb on the scales on board and after the long steam home it was kindly weighed by Steve and Liam Ford of Brixham Sea anglers on there official club scales so after losing a bit of fluids and weight it hit the scales at 47lb 4oz

    2016 diary is filling faster every day so if you want to fish on the ONLY boat out of Brixham who delivers results and also the ONLY catamaran in the port and the ONLY charter boat skipper who goes over and beyond to bring you results that others simply can not match up to, then please feel free to contact myself.
    (MY CATCHES AND RESULTS DO THERE OWN TALKING!!)

    BRIXHAMS Premier and TOP charter boat by far. (Just look at the photos and only been going 2 years!!!)

    Thanks again to my SIDEWINDER sponsor for producing simply the best lures on the market today.

    I will be back from holiday on the 14th August and am looking forward to the first shark trip of the year along with more Guernsey trips followed by the annual Totbay festival.
